Maybe you can clear the cache of contact app.

If you have rooted and have Clockworkmod then go to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache and try it.

Also try uninstalling google plus if you have it. 2.0 caused FCs like this for me in Contacts

Thank you, landwomble. I was desperate, no google search would give any information on this. Searching XDA gave me this post. After uninstalling G+ 2.0.0 it looks like I can edit my contacts finally (been a month without being able to do so, I thought it was the ROM I was using).
Thank you!

Com.Motorola.contacts force close

Just noticed that if I go into any or my contacts that have been synced to Facebook will force close if i open them. I tried removing my Facebook account and cleared the data of the contacts app but still get a force close.
I'd really like to not have to reset to try and fix it. Anyone have any other suggestions?

I can't even open the display options in the contacts menu.

My cousin was having the same problem on the Droid X yesterday. He did everything you could think of and contacts kept closing. In the end he unlinked facebook completely (from accounts) and the contacts app was fine. If you already tried that then i suggest probably uninstall facebook to see if it still happens.
also if you have any system apps frozen i would suggest you unfreeze them, this will cause contacts to crash too, depending on which one of course.

I had the same issue..then I backtracked to see what I installed recently and it lead me to google+ haha.
Google+ leak didn't work for me. Anybody else?
Just use the latest released one. Works fine.

I am having a force close issue when trying to add a new contact. Also can't goto "My Profile" in contacts menu. ANDROID.PROCESS.ACORE stopped unexpectedly. I love the ROM just reporting a bug. I can't post in developer forum yet if someone would be so kind to pass the word and let me know if you are having same issues. Thanks

If you ask in ROM thread then you might get some more answers.
Try fixing permissions from ROM manager.

are you running the ICS google+ or google music? That has a known issue with FC's when modifying or creating contacts

Posted this over in the thread for ya.
Also saw this response from gtg to a previous posters question which may or may not pertain to your issue...
gtg465x said:
Nothing in the update has anything to do with the contacts app though. And I updated to v1.0.3 using the update zip just like you did and no problems with my contacts app. Did you freeze or remove some apps with Titanium Backup? That can do it if you remove the wrong thing. There are a lot of things that can do it. Check your recently installed apps as well.

Turns out it is Facebook. I do not sync my contacts however if I delete my Facebook account from accounts and sync I can save a new contact. Then of course I can't log back into Facebook without it trying to sync contact again!

I sync my Facebook contacts and still don't have a problem. You using the Samsung Facebook sync or the actual app?
I was using the facebook app. After adding my Facebook account thru socialhub everything works. Must be facebooks problem?

This is probably my problem then. I am running ICS G+. Adding my Facebook account to socialhub fixes the problem though.

Contact data force close

Does anyone else get a force close when trying to open contacts and editing them? I have tried to take the contact data and sync from 2.0.2 since I didn't have the problem on that build. That didn't fix the problem any suggestions I would appreciate it.

On Version 2.02 and 2.03 I am able to edit contacts with no problems. I assign ringtones for my wife. There was a issue with a older version I had with FC's on contact but not on 2.02 or on 2.03
dont delete yahoo mail authenticator. for some reason blur contacts will fc if u delete that. sadly i was not able to restore it using titanium. u may want to push the apk back, or reload ur rom and not delete it.

process Android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly prompt on Samsung vibrant t959

I recently bought a vibrant from a friend of mine as a spare phone and I rooted it. The wife grabbed the vibrant and used it one day. she was messing around with the ROM toolbox app and then it started force closing. I don't know what she did but every 30 seconds or so it gives a prompt that says, "process Android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly". does anyone know what this means, or what I can do to fix it?

Have u tried to use Odin?? You might have to go back to stock

As i remember it, it had something to do with contacts sync error. Go to all apps and force stop google framework services and then force stop contacts, gmail and clear data. Do it a couple of times. Reboot and let everything sync again and hopefully it should be ok.

It has something to do with the contacts synching from what i recall.
1. Uninstall the facebook app if you have it installed.
2. Go to app manager: settings>applications>all>contacts storage>clear data
After this you can install the facebook app if it was installed.
I tried both solutions. Its still doing it, just not as often.

You might Also want to clear data from contacts storage after clearing contacts data. It will probably delete all your contacts, sms and call logs so backup etc.
I did a factory reset and force stopped/cleared data on anything that had to do with syncing contacts. I thinks its fixed! I'll post later to make sue though. I don't want to speak too soon. Thanx guys! Your help is greatly appreciated!

...well its at it again. My success was short lived. Could the wife have deleted something that may be causing this?

What rom are you using? Try a no wipe reflash
I didn't even think of flashing a rom. I flashed an ics rom and now it works fine. I'd still like to have a stock vibrant rom on hand just for the heck of it though. I really appreciate everyone's help on this. If anybody knows where I could find a stock t959 from let me know.

if you're on ics now and you want a stock rom you should odin first...you will be on stock 2.1...after that you can use kies mini to update your phone to the latest samsung official firmware which is 2.2
Err never ever use kies under any circumstance. Its a recipe for a brick. Read the sticky in this forum. Plenty of links for roms.

When my phone was doing this, it was not a contacts synch error, but a Calendar synch error. I had to clear my calendar data, export my Google calendar and re-import it, and re-do my Google account login in order to get it to stop. From my investigation, it could be any of the Google synch services.
Do a Google search for the error and one of the first responses will be an XDA thread about how to fix the error.
Thanx, I'm gonna try this tonite.

Handcent SMS issue

Been using handcent since my first android great app! But recently it started not sending picture messages but every other message app i try including stock (cm11) will send pictures. Does anyone have an idea on how to fix it? Ive uninstalled it and reinstalled it wiped cache factory reset (other issues too) its really annoying and i really like the app.
I think this needs to be in that questions section. This would be an app question. Or might wanna check you apn and make sure it's all correct.
